crzytchr, Does you insurance(s) have a max deductible? I know when I had my surgery that my max out of pocket copay was $2000 and the rest of this year I don't have to pay ANYTHING for anything else I need done. And for that matter I am taking full advantage of it. I had an adonimal CT scan (I had some pain) so I don't have to pay anything until it resets Jan 1st. Check and see.

crzytchr - I'm sorry to hear about your troubles. I've only experienced a Migraine headache a few times in my life and it was so debilitating I couldn't even move without throwing up. You are a strong person to be able to teach kids with a migraine. When I have a simple headache, my own kids are intolerable. I hope your surgery goes well and your recovery quick.

Orea - I'm sending postiive thoughts your way. Keep thinking positive about a great job for your DH.

shrinknme - I hope you have a great trip overseas. Can't you still get on the internet where you're going? We'll miss you.

It is one deductible per year, but I changed school districts, so I changed insurance companies, so I have to meet the new company's deductible. It sucks, but it must be done. I just hate that on jan. 1, a new year starts with a new deductible AGAIN!

Well, I have to share an experience by saying something I have never said before...I just finished watching my teenagers build a snowman!!!!!! We are covered in snow....not something we see often at all.

Thanks Donna.

thanks Donna! I will have some access overseas but just not sure how much.. have a great Christmas..

on another note.. nothing like the stomach flu to kick the weightloss into high gear! ugh.. I really pray its a 24hr bug like my daughters!

Have a Merry Christmas and try to check in from time to time.

I hope your stomach flu does indeed pass quickly -- cautionary note - if you are throwing up, then you may need to go see your doctor for an unfill as this can cause slippage (so I have heard).

I think I will have to try the Water and jumping jack trick myself. I have had alot of trouble with the unhealthy snacking. I have two teens who are very supportive accept they don't want to give up their junk foods. So it is in the house still. If I have a craving I don't have far to go to find it. I haven't lost any weight in a month. Well, I havn't gained any either. Any idea's?

[Donna113 2]

Bubbles, if you haven't lost any weight in a month and you don't feel satisfied with 1 to 1 1/2 cup of solid food, then go in for a fill. It did the trick for me! Don't know why I waited so long between the last fill and the fill before!

[kimaly 57]

I'll be glad when I can get a fill too, I gained 3lbs this week. The curves lady said I'm retaining Water, I hope that's the case. Eather way I'm in a good mood today because I got my biopsy back and all was good, just a complex cist. After 6 weeks of worrying about it, It feels good to let my brain relax.

Orea, you're so close -- less than 3lbs to go! Your weight loss has been awesome!

I had an IBS attack the other night which helped me drop a few pounds. Not a comfortable way to lose it. I still have abdominal tenderness and slight queasiness. But yes, it looks like I'll make it to the 200's by Christmas! :rolleyes2:

My face and my bust are showing the loss at the moment. :cursing:

It's good to lose it in the face but HATE losing it in the bust. I don't have much of a butt, but I think that's where I'm losing it because it's getting positively bony!

[Quilting Bee 0]

I guys. I don't post often but I read your notes every couple of days and have really found support with you. I wish I could loose in by butt. I've gone down from a 26 to a 16 pants size but when I look in the mirror I still see my big rear. I've seen it big for 15-20 years so I guess my mind hasn't caught up with my weight loss. :rolleyes2:
